Agniveer Army exam-day guide
Agniveer Army · Prepare for the day ahead.
Your checklist
Printed admit card / hall ticket
Download and print a clean hard copy from the official Agniveer recruitment portal. Check that your name, roll number, photograph, exam date, time and centre address are correct. If any detail is wrong, contact the provider immediately.
Valid original photo ID
Carry an original government-issued photo ID such as Aadhaar, PAN, passport, driving licence or voter ID, as accepted by the exam authority. Carry a photocopy as backup.
Passport-size photographs
Carry several copies of the same photograph used in your application. Confirm the exact number and specification with the provider.
Educational certificates and marksheets
Carry originals and photocopies of the certificates required for your Agniveer category eligibility. Keep them in a clear folder.
Category / domicile certificate, if applicable
If you are claiming a reserved category or special eligibility, carry the relevant original certificate and a photocopy. Confirm the accepted format with the provider.
Exam stationery
Carry a blue or black ballpoint pen if the exam is OMR-based. Confirm with the provider whether the test is OMR or computer-based before relying on any stationery item.
Reporting time and centre details
Note the reporting time, gate-closing time and full centre address. Visit or map the route a day before so you are not delayed on exam day.
Travel and accommodation plan
Pre-book travel and, if needed, accommodation near the centre. Keep buffer time for traffic, security checks and document verification.
Simple analogue watch
A basic analogue watch may be permitted in some centres, but smartwatches and digital devices are not. Confirm the centre's policy with the provider.
Water bottle and light snack
Carry these only if the centre permits them. Confirm the provider's rules on food and water inside the exam premises.
Clothes and footwear
Wear simple, comfortable clothes and footwear that comply with the centre's dress instructions. Avoid clothing with large logos or objectionable content.
Rest and sleep
Get a full night's sleep before the exam. Avoid last-minute cramming that increases anxiety.
Plan the day
Download and print the admit card, verify all details, plan your travel and accommodation, and gather all documents in one folder. Revise only your strong topics and avoid starting new subjects.
Pack your bag with the admit card, ID, photographs and certificates. Lay out your clothes, confirm the reporting time and route, eat a normal meal, and sleep early. Do not stay up late studying.
Eat a light breakfast, carry your documents and stationery, and leave early enough to reach the centre well before the reporting time. Avoid carrying prohibited electronic items.
Follow security and biometric verification, locate your assigned seat, read all instructions carefully, and fill in your roll number and other details exactly as instructed by the invigilator.
Attempt easier questions first, manage your time, and mark answers carefully. Do not leave the hall without permission. If you have a doubt or technical issue, raise your hand and inform the invigilator.
Rules to check
Carry your printed admit card and original photo ID at all times. Entry may be refused if either is missing or does not match your application details.
Mobile phones, smartwatches, calculators, Bluetooth devices and other electronic items are normally prohibited inside the exam hall. Follow the centre's instructions strictly.
Cooperate with security checks, biometric verification and photography. Follow all instructions given by the invigilator and centre staff.
Do not indulge in any unfair means or malpractice. Any attempt to use unauthorised material or communicate with others can lead to disqualification.
Reach the centre before the gate-closing time. Late entry is usually not allowed and remains at the discretion of the exam authority.
Ask the invigilator before making any correction to your answer sheet or computer-based test response. Do not damage or tamper with exam materials.
Scoring, negative-marking and answer-review policies can vary by exam cycle. Confirm the exact scoring rules from the official information bulletin before the exam.
Maintain discipline and quiet inside the exam premises. Any dispute or special request should be raised politely with the centre supervisor.
